How pass Parameters in URL


Recommended Posts

I'm starting to learn Dreamweaver, PHP.. etc.

 

I have a real project I'm looking to impliment as I learn. Its a simple 2 page database search. I have 2 pages, 1 with search string field, and some radio buttons to limit the search, the second is my results page.

 

How do I pass along the parameters (string, radio buttons) after clicking the SEARCH button to the second page. These parameters will be used to define the sql query to display.

 

Thanks!

I did something similar with a sight that I'm working on right now. I was pasing the 'order number' on to the following page(s) and calling certain fields from the MySQL db.

 

I used a variable of $ID as the variable to track

 

I used a hyper link:

echo "<a href='phpscript.php?pid=$id'> Click here to continue with order # $id </a>";

 

Using a '?' after the *.php page name allows to you send variables to the next page and have those variables acted on.

 

Next, we need to receive the info:

$id = $_GET['pid'];


$result=mysql_query("SELCT * FROM images WHERE id={$id}");

 

Good Luck
